In the first decades of the 20th century, these bogies were commonly fitted to passenger rolling stock on the European main land.These "swan neck" bogies were based on an American design. It is likely they were used all over the globe, in some way or another.This is my interpretation in Gauge 1 (1:32, 45 mm).These bogies can be fitted these previously published designs:NS DIV/"Stalen D" luggage wagons DB Mdyg Behelfsgepäkwagen -I've used the same method of construction as for my other designs.LGB/Marklin/Piko 30 mm wheel sets on 3.0 mm axles are shortened to size. They roll in ZZ623 bearings fitting in the side-plates.The leaf-sping-sections are gleud to the central section.UPDATE 19DEC2023: The brakes are now separate parts. This makes printing easier, and allows easy replacement of these delicate items. Use a piece of 1.75 mm filament as an aligment pin and and M2 screws to fix them to the central section.
